IP: Always test the spray pattern on scrap cardboard or similar material
f
irst. Begin with flow control knob on the highest flow setting. Heavier,
t
hicker materials should be sprayed on the higher setting closer to #9.
T
hinner materials should be sprayed on the lower setting closer to #1.

DEVELOPING THE PROPER SPRAYING TECHNIQUE
• Practice spraying on a piece of scrap material such as cardboard to test your spray pattern and become familiar with
the speed settings flow control features of the sprayer.
• Ensure surface to be sprayed is free of dust, dirt, and grease.
• Ensure spray area is clean and free of dust that could be blown onto newly sprayed surfaces.
• Cover any areas not intended to be sprayed.
• Always spray from a minimum of 1 inch (25mm) to a maximum of 14 inches (355mm) (figure I). Optimal is usually
around 10 inches or use a paint stir stick as a reference.
• A commonly used method for spraying a large surface is the “crisscross” pattern. This is done by spraying in
horizontal strips and then crossing over these strips with vertical strips.
• To get an even spray distribution, always keep your arm at the same distance (figure I) from the surface you are
spraying and avoid moving your wrist (figure I1).
